SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

DBX Core Actions address the complexity of coordinating asynchronous operations in Angular by offering a typed, declarative action system and an ActionContextStore that centralizes state management and lifecycle handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-state action state machine guides action flow from idle to success or error.
  • ActionContextStore: immutable, observable-driven state management that coordinates values, triggers, and results.
  • Directive-composition model: build complex workflows by composing context, value providers, handlers, and UI feedback directives.
  • Type safety & generics: support for input type T and output type O across actions.
  • Robust cleanup & lifecycle: automatic unsubscription and lifecycle safety to prevent leaks.

Use cases: API calls, form submissions, multi-step tasks, and complex workflows requiring centralized coordination.

Quick Start

Start by creating a root dbxAction container to provide the ActionContextStore, attach a dbxActionHandler to process results (returning an Observable or using the context.resolve()), and add a value provider (dbxActionValue or dbxActionForm) together with a dbxActionButton to trigger and optional UI directives for feedback.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage asynchronous workflows in Angular without causing memory leaks?▼

Asynchronous workflows in Angular can be managed declaratively using an observable-driven action state machine with robust cleanup and automatic unsubscription to prevent memory leaks.

What is the best way to coordinate stateful API calls and form submissions in Angular?▼

Coordinating stateful API calls and form submissions is best handled by a centralized ActionContextStore that guides a 7-state action flow from idle to success or error using observable streams.

How does a declarative action state machine handle multi-step interactions in RxJS?▼

A declarative action state machine handles multi-step RxJS interactions by composing context, value providers, and UI feedback directives while maintaining type-safe generics for inputs and outputs.

Can I build complex Angular workflows by composing UI feedback and action handlers together?▼

You can build complex Angular workflows by using a directive-composition model that connects action handlers, value providers, and UI feedback directives within a root action container.

Does this declarative action system require manual lifecycle management for observables?▼

This declarative action system does not require manual lifecycle management for observables because it provides automatic unsubscription and lifecycle safety to prevent leaks.
